GWS on Grimsby Telegraph Website

andyandmalontelegraphsiteLast Tuesday morning, the 21st September 2010, I emailed some photos I took at the Grimsby Wargames Society to my local paper The Grimsby Telegraph. To date none of them have yet been published in the paper but however have been put on display with other reader’s photos on the Grimsby Telegraph website (see left). It was mainly to see if this approach would work whilst at the same time hoping to raise the club’s profile. After all, someone might see a photo of some games at the club and try to track us down on google.

These 2 photos from a recent Rapid Fire! game will probably be on the website for many weeks as they will move along slowly on the slideshow the more other photos are added to it.

I therefore encourage other Grimsby Wargames Society members to send their wargames photos, with a caption, to the Grimsby Telegraph. For the details on how to do this read the Grimsby Telegraph: Your Pictures page. Those members who do wish to send some photos: Do not resize them! Send them at the original size they were downloaded from your camera.

It is my intention to keep on sending some pics of games at the club every few weeks to the Grimsby Telegraph and we’ll see what happens.

Countdown to Cleethorpes Rocks

Yay! I am going to Cleethorpes Rocks tomorrow, Cleethorpes first ever Rock Festival. Bought my ticket about a month ago (see left).

Looking forward to seeing The Proclaimers, New Beautiful South and The Zutons - who are the Headline act - in particular. Don't really know any of the supporting acts on the bill but having heard some samples, I quite like their sound all the same.

Cleethorpes Rocks is being held at Meridian Park situated next to the Cleethorpes Coast Light Railway station. It is being promoted by Grimsby's Solid Entertainments.

This will be my first time to a concert. Do not consider helping out at the Grimsby Jazz Festivals a few years after I left school as properly attending. I am going on my own as the friends I invited to come with me are unable to make it. Should be a nice day. For more info on the concert go to: http://www.cleethorpesrocks.co.uk/

Our local paper will be covering the event with a special spread next monday. Read this small article on the Grimsby Telegraph website: http://www.thisisgrimsby.co.uk/news/Resort-ready-rock-festival-fever-hits/article-1251884-detail/article.html

As always I will be going armed with my camera. Talking of which, for those who have never been to Meridian Park, here is what it looks like:
